SP10PGYW: C10PGYW Endura4 Emerson Opener
Spyderco
 
If knives could be created in the same way we choose players for fantasy football league teams, every hardcore knife knut would recruit features and characteristics they like best from different knife companies and combine them into their favorite knife. Spyderco will undoubtedly fulfill many knife knuts knife fantasy picks with the introduction of the Delica and Endura with Emerson's opening feature. These models combine all that's functional and performance-based in a Spyderco folder with the blade-opening feature made popular and patented by Ernest Emerson of Emerson Knives.

The Emerson opening feature is a hook curving out the top of the knife's blade. When removing the knife from a front pocket it catches the pocket's edge quickly opening the knife blade ready to use. The knife can also be taken out of the pocket without engaging the opening feature by pulling it straight up and out with your fingers on top of the closed blade.

Delicas and Enduras with Emerson's opening feature have screw construction making cleaning and adjusting easier. Their gray fiberglass reinforced nylon handles are molded with Bi-Directional Texturing® for traction and improved ergonomics. Inside the handle dual skeletonized stainless steel liners strengthen the knife without additional weight and create an anchor for external and internal components to attach through for more sturdiness and rigidity. Their VG-10 blades are flat saber-ground with a stronger tip and larger 13mm opening hole. Added to the blade's spine is slip resistant jimping. Phosphor bronze washers smooth out the open/close action and the clip is upgraded to a four-way tip-up, tip-down, left- or right-handed clip.

Pros: Overall Quality, Blade Sharpness, Ease of Opening, Weight, Blade Material
Cons: None
fast opener for edc
With the wave feature this isa fast opening knife. I tried it with several of the pants I own including pajama pants and it opened everytime. If for some reason it doesnt you can quickly open it by inertial opening. Knife was sharp enough that it easily shaved hair off my arm. Good steel for the price. I paid $68 for mine.

Pros: Blade Material, Pocket Clip, Blade Sharpness, None
Cons: Lock Type, Lock Ease of Use, Handle Feel, Ease of Opening, Handle Material
I am not really warming up to this knife at all. The wave feature does work very well and the blade quality and sharpness are very nice. That is where it ends. The handle quality to cheap and the ergonomics just aren't there for me. I am fine with the lockback but this lock causes so much drag on the blade that it is difficult to open with the thumb. You almost HAVE to use the wave in order to smoothly open this knife. I recommend to spend a few bucks more and get a paramilitary.

God I love Enduras
This is my fourth endura, and my favorite so far. The wave feature on this knife works just as well as the one on my Emerson Roadhouse, the blade comes to an almost perfect spearpoint, and (like every other spyderco I've ever bought) it came exceptionally sharp. The deployment isn't quite as fast as on my saber ground endura four but I think that will change with time. The only thing I don't like about this knife is this new coating that Spyderco is putting on some of their pocket clips, but thats a very minor complaint and if it gets to really bothering me I'll just stonewash it. Overall an incredible EDC/tactical folder that I will edc for a very long time.
